You’ll Fall for Me, Today or Tomorrow novel Chapter 74

Clarissa entered the apartment, while Matthew followed behind her.

She frowned. “Who said you can enter? I said I don’t want to live with you, so leave!”

Pretending to be deaf, Matthew tossed his coat on the couch while unbuttoning his collar and got closer to Clarissa, looking all sexy and relaxed.

Clarissa was so vulnerable to his seduction that she sat there, not moving an inch.

Very quickly, she was pulled into the man’s embrace. His deep, magnetic voice brushed across her ears, making them redden immediately. “I’m not here to live with you. I’m here to sleep with you.”

The heat in the blood from her ears moved to her entire body, and Clarissa could feel her face burning. Her face was like a steamed crab, reddening quickly, and her body temperature rose.

However, she remained headstrong. “I reject!”

Matthew didn’t care about her rejections as he chuckled softly. After landing a kiss on her lips, he released her and took off his clothes before entering the bathroom.

Clarissa was angry, but it was different, as she felt aggrieved for the first time in her life.

Ever since she was young, her life had been a bed of roses. Even though she was abandoned by her mother, she was happy living with her grandmother, and there wasn’t anything that made her suffer. At school, she was good at her studies and often passed her exams with flying colors. She was her teacher’s favorite, and she received scholarships every year. After getting herself into a prestigious university, she hadn’t even graduated yet but rose to fame due to the novel she wrote.

One can say that Clarissa had never felt so uncomfortable and discontented before meeting Matthew.

He suspected me of having other intentions of approaching him and caused me a lot of trouble. From introducing boyfriends to testing me, to dragging me into awkward situations. Afterward, he used various tricks to force me into agreeing to become his girlfriend.

I’m just like a monkey, being played around in his clutches, unable to resist, no matter how aggrieved I feel.

Clarissa regretted knowing Matthew and becoming his girlfriend.

However, she could only grumble in her mind as she didn’t dare to say them out loud.

After bathing, Matthew came out of the bathroom. Clarissa was on her laptop, reading the novel named “Princess” which she wrote in the past.

Reading it now, there were a lot of areas that needed to be worked on and the chapters were quite short. However, she got some new inspiration after discussing it with Justin, and she wanted to write them down. If she was lucky, and her book did well, maybe Justin would agree to adapt it into a drama, fulfilling her wish of becoming a screenwriter for Justin’s films.

Noticing Matthew walking out of the bathroom, Clarissa had completely forgotten about how aggrieved he made her feel, as she had some important matters to ask him. “Uncle Matthew, are you good friends with Director Yates?”

Matthew sat beside her and handed the towel to her.

Clarissa grumbled in her mind before taking the towel and dried his hair for him.

Actually, he didn’t have long hair, and he could easily dry it himself. He obviously wants to make things difficult for me!

However, Matthew knew Clarissa was going to ask for a favor, so he was sure she would give in.

Clarissa dried his hair obediently and asked in a flattering tone, “Uncle Matthew, did Director Yates mention anything about filming a movie? Is it really martial arts themed? Did he choose a script? Is he coming back to film a new movie?”

Matthew said, “I knew Justin ever since we’re young.”

Clarissa’s eyes flickered, and she asked, “Really? Then do you know him well?”

Matthew smirked. “Justin’s movies were mostly sponsored by the entertainment companies under Tyson Corporation.”

Clarissa froze for a while and returned to her usual self after a while. Tossing aside the towel, she felt excited as she laid on Matthew’s back, placing her head on his shoulder. “Really? Then who’s the one in charge of deciding what to film? Him or you guys?”

Matthew raised a brow at her actions. “He decides what he wants to film, but we have the final say.”

“Oh…” Clarissa dragged the words in realization before letting go of Matthew and contemplated for a bit.

Raising his brow, Matthew turned around and placed her on his legs. “Clare, you want Justin to use your script?”

Clarissa looked at the towel on the floor. “I won’t insist, but I’m quite tempted by what Director Yates told me just now. I know that my level of writing isn’t that incredible, and even if Director Yates wasn’t interested in the story I create, I won’t have any regrets. After all, there are many screenwriters better than me.”

Matthew caressed her silky smooth cheeks and couldn’t help but fall in love with them.

He asked, “You have a good mindset. But what if I can make Justin use your script?”

Clarissa’s eyes sparkled when she heard his words, but she shook her head. “No. Director Yates is my idol. I admire and like him…”

Before she could finish her sentence, Matthew pinched her cheeks, while the latter frowned and asked, “You like him?”

Clarissa furrowed her brows, as she was displeased at his assumption. “I like him as an idol… Can you be more serious? I admire him because of the story he portrays in his films. He has his own ideas and style in portraying the images and the characters. If you ask him to film and he agrees, this isn’t his style, and I won’t like the work he shows. So, it’ll be best to go with the flow, following Director Yates’ own ideas.”

Matthew squinted his eyes and stared at Clarissa, while the woman added cheekily, “And most importantly, I refuse to involve myself in any shady business.”

I know what he’s trying to do, offering to help me like that.

He must want me to sleep with him.
